Awiqli is a new 1 time a week basal insulin from Novo Nordisk. It results in more severe hypoglycemia than any of the other basal insulins for diabetics. This will result in more obesity for which they will also give you a drug. Comment at FDA. regulations.gov/document/FDA-2…

Last March, Novo announced it would cut the cost of Levemir by 65% starting Jan. 1, 2024. However last November, before the discounts went into effect, the Danish drugmaker revealed plans to withdraw Levemir in the US completely.

FIX IT @SherrodBrown I'm tired of seeing your commercial about how you helped to lower cost of insulin for those that need life support BUT yet my son 19 now has to suffer who was a FDA test subject at 3 yrs old for levemir before children under 6 were approved NOW screwed #T1D

@t1international Please assist us in advocating regarding @novonordisk decision to discontinue Levemir. There are only 2 alternatives with very long action times and side effects. Levemir’s shorter action time is essential for children! We need a bio similar! We need influence with reach to help!
@Maybarduk @t1international @SenSanders NovoNordisk is discontinuing Levemir to focus on the more lucrative Ozempic. T1’s are a vulnerable population completely reliant on pharma. Ozempic is not necessary for life. Insulin is.

@EdwardGarnett @novonordiskus They want to focus on the more lucrative Ozempic. Levemir is a unique insulin whose short action time is perfect for children. Insurance companies are now refusing to cover it. Making it appear as though it’s not being prescribed. Crickets from ALL diabetes “advocacy” groups.
❗️ Novo Nordisk faces scrutiny over discontinuing Levemir insulin, a critical medication for pregnant diabetes patients. With a 65% price cut planned, why pull the plug now? Senators demand answers. Read about the controversy and its impact on patients >> shorturl.at/fzMN7
Insulin manufacturers like @novonordisk play dangerous games with patients' lives. Discontinuing vital medications like Levemir leaves people, like Sara from Ohio, scrambling to find alternatives. All because of pharma greed. Patients deserve better. statnews.com/2024/04/24/nov…

@BevTchangMD @alpanashuklamd Thanks to the great work by @AKoutnik, we know that the lower the CHO, the lower the A1c in #T1D. 100% of the VLCD cohort got A1c well below 7%! CHO are deleterious to glycemic control in the population at large. We should question why we include them at all for #diabetics?
Monthly #A1c test. Everyone is entitled to normal blood sugars. I have been under 5% A1c for over a year now as a #Type1Diabetic thanks to #lowcarb and the #bernsteinbrigade. #T1D #Diabetes

Case closed 🙄 Do I get £100 now?
Glad I have a smartphone and could quickly sort this out. If I didn't, I'd have to go to a library to email or use the website, or have money to use a telephone to call them, or have money to write to them. All options also take time and the ability to do this sort of thing.
The only prescriptions I got between those dates were for insulin too. Not hard for any organisation that isn't run by a bunch of idiots to figure it out? The address on the letter had my postcode without a space, I'd be shocked if that's not the cause.

UPDATED: #NovoNordisk attracts lawmakers' scrutiny after dropping discounted #insulin product #Levemir fiercepharma.com/pharma/novo-no…
@EdwardGarnett @novonordiskus Novo Nordisk announced on its website that the drug was discontinued due to global production restrictions, prescription losses affecting patient accessibility, and the availability of alternative options. Novo Nordisk will continue to offer Levemir pens and Levemir vials…
Good to see Congressional scrutiny of @novonordiskus claims of “supply chain problems” leading to the discontinuation of Levemir. It sounds familiar to families who rely on Norditropin, hearing the same “constraints” while facing shortages since late 2022. warren.senate.gov/newsroom/press…
Millions of families, including ours, rely on @novonordiskus Norditropin. I find it incredible that Novo gave families no explanation on why an existing drug vanished. Thank you to @slupkin @NPR for the extensive reporting on the ongoing supply issues. npr.org/sections/healt…
